John Shuler swivel
« on: January 15, 2018, 10:24:37 PM »
Anybody know what the hammer price ended up on this rifle last Friday at the Ron Gilligan auction?  I was planning to
go and work got in the way.  It was a pretty nice example.

I forget the exact description of this rifle in the auction listing, but I recall it was not such that someone searching for a longrifle would have found it, so
likely their may not have been many KY rifle collectors present.  Too bad work got in my way....again.
